“Just Let Go” is a cinematic tale depicting how a person can forgive despite the retaliatory tendencies that surface within the darks corners of the human heart and strives to show the world that hope, love and forgiveness can overcome all when you just let go. The feature, based on the autobiographical book by Chris Williams, Let It Go: A True Story of Tragedy and Forgiveness, stars Emmy nominee Henry Ian Cusick (“Lost,” “Scandal,” “The 100”), Oscar-nominee Brenda Vaccaro (“Once Is Not Enough”) and Sam Sorbo (“Hercules: The Legendary Journeys”). “Just Let Go” is the inspirational true story of Chris Williams and his remarkable act of forgiveness after a drunk driver killed his wife and three children.
“A movie like this, ‘Just Let Go,’ reminds you how powerful storytelling can be, in touching your heart and reminding you of the importance of forgiveness, and how it can set you free,” said Delilah.
“In some way, we can all relate to Chris’ story,” said Fathom Events CEO John Rubey. “Fathom is honored to be a part of sharing such a powerful message of forgiveness with our audiences.”
Arthur VanWagenen, Director of Film Distribution with Excel Entertainment Group, said, “At the end of the day, humans have more cause to be united than to be divided, and forgiving each other is key to uncovering that common ground. Excel is humbled to be participating in an event with people from such diverse perspectives on faith and life, who nevertheless agree on the power and importance of forgiveness.”
A portion of the proceeds from this event will be donated to the Human Journey, web platform for the “Tutu Global Forgiveness Challenge” which empowers people to forgive.
